Why AEC Firms Need Additional Cybersecurity

“We had a pleasant experience with the consultants as they provided their services… As a very busy CPA firm, time is one of our most valued resources. It was extremely helpful that the Alliant Cybersecurity consultants prided themselves on punctuality to every call, meeting, and appointment. The Certified Ethical Hackers tested all of our connected devices and communicated all potential vulnerabilities. They worked directly with our outsourced IT professionals to provide solutions to any security concerns. Our firm now has a greater confidence level in the security platform we have in place. There’s no question that we would highly recommend the Alliant Cybersecurity Team to any company seeking such related services.”​

“With Manhard Consulting being a very reputable consulting firm, we firmly believe in customer service first. Alliant Cybersecurity does just that. The consulting that we have received over the last year of working with them has been far more beneficial than any of the projects that they have done. The surplus of experienced professionals guarantees that there will always be someone that has the knowledge to assist us with any help or recommendations that we may need. We are very excited that we have found Alliant Cybersecurity so early in the world of cyber and are excited to keep this partnership ongoing. Manhard Consulting can very comfortably say that Alliant Cybersecurity and we are on the same team.”​

“Alliant Cybersecurity has helped us with multiple projects. The first engagement was a vulnerability assessment, which helped us understand our enterprise's threats. The analysis has allowed us to see a holistic view of our current networking and physical environment. After the assessment, we focused on constantly monitoring our environment and have since implemented Blue Sentinel, a Managed Detection and Response offering. With Blue Sentinel, their team of analysts has provided me with regular reporting on anomalies and activity in my environment that I wouldn't have known existed or been able to handle on my own. Having this critical information and remediation recommendations has given Mid-Iowa Cooperative a boost in cyber vigilance.”

“Pacific-Gulf Marine is a well-established, full-service ship operating and management company. We pride ourselves on being innovative and taking an aggressive pursuit focused on continual improvement. This desire to improve led us to Alliant Cybersecurity. In an effort to be proactive and mitigate our exposure to potential cyber-crime, we engaged Alliant Cybersecurity to conduct a Cyber Risk Review. The team of consultants at Alliant Cybersecurity were able to thoroughly investigate our systems, processes, and technologies to provide a detailed review of our organization’s risks. Additionally, we were given actionable recommendations to address the risks that Alliant identified with a strategic plan of recommendations to reduce those risks.”

“Our work with large defense companies raised the need for us to maintain NIST 800-171 and CMMC compliance. Therefore, we partnered with Alliant Cybersecurity to transform and improve our cyber posture. Alliant has successfully conducted many projects that have elevated our network security and educated us on best practices and mitigation strategies. We received virtual CISO services, risk and vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and consistent consulting thought our years of partnership. Alliant Cybersecurity has had a lasting impact on our infrastructure by implementing data privacy and security management tools such as KnowBe4 security awareness and phishing training and the Sophos cloud security platform.”

"We engaged Alliant Cybersecurity for a Cybersecurity Risk Assessment to learn more about our security posture. Alliant's team was exceptional and impressively knowledgeable. Overall, the risk assessment was educational and valuable to our company. We highly recommend Alliant Cybersecurity for any organization looking to protect its valuable data and resources from external threats."
